“Hampton Cambridge's metro-side value”

Hampton Inn Boston/Cambridge is a great-value hotel beside the metro — about a fifteen-dollar Uber to Boston Common and thirty minutes' walk to MIT, free parking (though roughly fifty tight underground spots can fill), hallway ice water, all-day lobby hot water and tea, a make-your-own-waffle hot breakfast (scrambled eggs, sausage, porridge — more continental spread than proper buffet), and outstanding staff for repeat guests. The complaints: a disgusting inner-bedding stain discovered next morning, a barely-trickling shower, and one unfriendly unhelpful check-in — a first for a loyal guest.
